So even if you have closed the settings menu and lock the phone's screen, when you unlock the phone, noled's settings show up ?

can you please try 1.1.1 i posted in the thread above this ?

I added some stuff that had to do with window focus. Given how the vibrant/captivate have more capacitive buttons at the bottom.. this might be whats breaking it. anywho, please let me know how that posted version works out.

As for the exchange mail problem, I still have no idea why this is happening. am really not touching any exchange mail APIs.

kyeung: what dot color do you get for exchange mail notifications? is it the "other" color, or the "gmail" color ?
[Android Apps and Games] JDLourenco:
A little sugestion

Dear madmack

The app looks quite nice and working fine, congratulations, if you allow me to sugest one thing:

When you recevied multiple events, like: Missed calls, and at same time Email (work fine on my Exchange account on others events), SMS the color blink is the last, sugestion: could you please put all the events blinking: blue, red, etc?

If of cours is not difficult to do.

Anothe sugestion, when the battery going down we received an alert that please recharged the terminal, but if is on stand the terminal can go down and we don´t know.

Sugestion, on other corner is possible to do the same but referent to the battery? like: Green: Bettwen 100& and 75%, Yellow 75 and 50, orange: 50% and 25% Red: 25% and 10% or double red bellow 10% (or something).

What do you think?

Good job,

BR
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
sorry but am having a problem understanding what you're requesting. Do you want the colors on the screen to blink (as in appear/disappear periodically) or are you saying that there is a bug where some dots don't move around when you receive multiple notifications at the same time?

You're supposed to be able to dismiss these notifications when they pop up. If you're complaining that they exist in the first place, I think what you need to do is set a timeout timer for an hour or so. That way, NoLED is guaranteed to be off when you receive the "battery full" popup.

I'm minimizing the usage of the LEDs of the screen. and really all this app is there to do, is to show you that you have some missed "events" on the phone. thanks for your suggestions and feedback anyways :)
[Android Apps and Games] JDLourenco:
Dear Madmack

Sorry my english, is because I am Portuguese and of course some mistakes can existe, sorry.

About the first doubt, my sugestion is to blink all the events on the screen, the red (for emails exchange) blue missed calls, green SMS, and now only the last event is blink (show) for example if ocours the email and after the SMS, on scren only appears the green blink, its Ok now?

About the battery is to know when the battery is down and if the terminal are alive (because if they are "dead" for low bat we dont know).

I hope that was more clear now.

Sorry, and thanks

First of all this program is awesome. I was wondering if we could get support for Google Voice. Currently Google voice missed call notification works because it is just like any other missed call. But the text messages do not show up with noled. There is a Gvoice icon in the notification tray but noled doesn't do anything. It would be nice if Google voice texting could be grouped in with the SMS category and produce a light like any other SMS. I will buy you another beer if you are able to get this working. :)

P.S. 1.1 from the market is broken for me on my stock captivate. I get the settings screen like the others but I know you are working on it.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
for GV SMS, please make sure you select a default Samsung notification ringtone in GV's settings. Now NoLED should display "other" notification dot when you receive a GV SMS. make sure your phone is not set to silent/vibrate when you try that. this should work :)

Like I said previously, google did not release any APIs for Voice, so we'll have to do without silent/vibrate mode support atm.

For the broken 1.1, i uploaded v1.1.1 a couple of posts above this. just waiting on any of you guys to try it out and see if it works.
[Android Apps and Games] redbloodhk:
better with led blink option too. much more reduce the time of buring.
[Android Apps and Games] kyeung:
I got the RED dot (other) for exchange mail notification in version 1.1, during the time when it worked.
[Android Apps and Games] iqbalbaskara:
hello madmack, first of all, thanks for working on this solution!

I'm currently using the 1.1 version and I stumbled upon this bug of some sort:

I was updating my status on the Twitter app, and while I was doing that, someone in my timeline mentioned my tweet ID, thus triggering the NoLED app, the screen looked like it tried to go all black with the colored "LED" but then went back to the Twitter app screen and a notification popped up, FCing NoLED app.

It's a minor nuisance, but a nuisance nonetheless. Other than that I absolutely love NoLED app. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] rbtady:
I will try this and let you know how it works. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] rbtady:
Hi Madmack,

I tried v1.1.1. I emailed myself and got the notification dot, tried using home button and it turned on my phone (no problem). Emailed myself again, got notification dot, tried using power button, phone turned on (no problem). Emailed myself one last time to make sure, no notification light. pressed power button, swiped lock screen and was on NoLed settings. Same issue that happened on 1.1. I left it on hoping it would work...Got a gmail chat message, no notification light :( Does it have something to do with pressing the power button?
[Android Apps and Games] mckooter:
im impressed with the updates since my last review of the application, re-installed, and will be testing a bit more
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
Thanks for testing this for me..

This is my last attempt at fixing this for vibrant/captivate users. Please try it and let me know. i reverted most of the changes I did in 1.1 that were supposed to optimize NoLED. Please let me know how 1.1.2 works out for you guys. (it really should work if 1.0b worked).

As for the possibility that the bug might be triggered by using the Power Button, lets see if this works out (power unlock might be broken here, if it is, let me know), if it gives the same behavior as 1.1.1, then I might wanna rethink my method of using the power button to unlock (dismiss) the notifications. But overall, this should fix the issues of the Settings menu showing up and what not.

Thank you guys for helping me keep this app as great as it is.
[Android Apps and Games] rbtady:
Hi Madmack,

Unfortunately 1.1.2 had the same issue as 1.1.1 for me. It still went to the settings screen after not showing a notification. Right now 1.0b is working best for me.
[Android Apps and Games] technofab:
Madmack any news for JPC firmware? I've last version on market, but it not work..
[Android Apps and Games] NotoriousNeo:
Hey all, this thread is relatively massive so I thought I'd just quickly ask if this will work well on all Galaxy S phones. In my case, a Samsung Fascinate. I installed the app and it works for Gmail and missed calls, but for some reason nothing pops up when I get a text message. Any ideas why that'd be happening?

Thanks again. <3
[Android Apps and Games] kyeung:
New feature suggestion

Hi Madmack,

I know that you're probably thinking about the solution to the problems reported here, but when you're ready to add features, could you please see if you can add schedule to NoLED? I typically leave my Vibrant on charger at night, and if I forget to inactive NoLED before going to bed, the charge complete popup window will stay on the screen until I use the phone the next morning. With the schedule, I can then set it to inactive say, after 11pm and reactivate it at 7am. Just a thought...
[Android Apps and Games] iqbalbaskara:
hello madmack,

just reporting, I switched to ADW Launcher (using LauncherPro previously). and NoLED still turned off randomly somehow (the widget shows all black, no colored squares) I tried re-activating the widget and also rebooting the phone, but it still turns off randomly.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
I'll be adding this feature as soon as the problems with 1.1 are ironed out. meanwhile, I recommend that you use the timeout feature to make NoLED timeout after say an hour or two of idling.

did you try 1.1.2 that I posted in the previous page? I received some conformation from vibrant/captivate users that it is finally working. I'll put that version up in the market as soon as I get a chance.
[Android Apps and Games] anusthegreat:
Same problem here. Running. 1.1 version from Market on my Galaxy S flashed with HACKECLAIR. Missed calls are ok, but nothing about text messages.
[Android Apps and Games] iqbalbaskara:
got it, installed. will let you know how it goes. :cool:
[Android Apps and Games] movieaddict:
help, wont work anymore

I love this app~~ great work! but once i updated to 1.11 it stopped working so i downgraded to 1.0 and it still wouldnt work then i upgraded to 1.12 from this forum and it still wouldnt work!! I use this app alot and i really need this app to work. I tried everything rebooting it and using widget to activate but nothing helps and any info would be greatly appreciated.

[Android Apps and Games] hondaguy:
i was having trouble with the last few versions and i have had the least amount of issues with version 0.9 (found in first post). i keep trying new versions then going back to 0.9. i just installed 1.1.2 about 20 minutes ago, so not sure if it will keep from turning itself off or not.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
what version did you have working last ? was 1.0b working before you installed 1.11 and then reverted back to 1.0b ?

seems the upgrade from 0.9 to 1.0b was a hit or mess.. many people say 1.0b works, and many others are complaining..

Guys, try to uninstall any older versions, reboot. then install the new versions that u want to try and try them out.

movieaddict.. does NoLED turn off by itself ? do you turn on NoLED (see dots in widget), and then not receive email notifications for example ? does NoLED disable itself at all ?
[Android Apps and Games] hondaguy:
i have been uninstalling and re-installing but i have not been rebooting before installing. i just uninstalled, rebooted and installed 1.1.2 so i can see how it goes. i will post later on
[Android Apps and Games] movieaddict:
i made sure the widget was done properly with dots in the square. Not getting anything from texts, emails etc... its getting frustrating.

** new info** i downgraded to the original 0.3 apk and it works fine. So im slowly gone work my way back up and see where it went wrong for me and ill let u know, ty for ur help
[Android Apps and Games] hondaguy:
The app is turning off again on me. I have reverted back to 0.9
[Android Apps and Games] movieaddict:
new update

i went through all the versions and only 0.3 works for me now! which is weird because it was either 0.9 or 1.0 worked great with the multiple color led dots, then i updated and it hasnt worked since and its very upsetting because the color coding was a brillaint idea and worked great!!
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
am not able to replicate this problem nor can think of any reason why this might be happening. many people reported that 1.0b works fine.. and the fact that NoLED works fine here on my phone makes me suspect that people with problems are either having a problem with their specific devices (due to some strange custom setting) , or are setting NoLED in a wrong way (checking only in silent/vibrate mode for example will turn NoLED off when in normal ringmode). we'll take 1.1.2 as a working base and build on that. as far as I can tell, works superbly here.

NoLED leaves no trace on the device when uninstalled. I highly doubt your problems are related to any bug in NoLED. 0.3 did not even use Gmail/gtalk notifications in silent/vibrate mode so I can't help you with this one .
[Android Apps and Games] hondaguy:
The only thing I changed in settings is the colors and I also changed the setting to cancel notifications after 30 min. I love the app and am happy with 0.9
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
To rbtady and anybody who has the problem of the NoLED Preference screen showing up after unlocking the phone. Can you try 1.1.3 posted here and report back whether this works or not ?

It should not show the settings menu after unlocking the phone now.
[Android Apps and Games] redbull666:
Would love to have this work with Pingchat (http://pingchat.com/) as well, any chance at getting that to work? Currently I often notice them way late.
[Android Apps and Games] movieaddict:
ty so very much!!

i dont know if i told u but im using a samsung vibrant. But after i saw u post 1.13 apk for noled, I was questioning my self if i should install it as i have rebooted my phone many times to try to get this to work..LOL. But i did and 1.13 works like a charm!! ty so very much u Rock!! I dont know wht u did to fix it but ty very much for all ur hard work.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
great ! v1.1.4 in the market fixes yet another bug that I noticed. glad to see all is working again :) I reverted most tweaks that I did in in 1.0b to make it NoLED behave like it did in 0.9
[Android Apps and Games] vipinpv:
Is there two led's to the left side of ear piece.

I got my galaxy s I9000 yesterday I dont know if its my eyes i can see two dots(may be LED's), to the left side of ear piece .. may be this whole led notification is a software issue.
[Android Apps and Games] iqbalbaskara:
AFAIK those are not LEDs, one of them is the proximity sensor (to turn off the screen when your face is near it), the other is ambience light sensor (to automatically adjust the screen brightness) :)
[Android Apps and Games] Ziesel:
Hello.

First of all, big thanks for making this app.

However, it wont work for me on the Samsung Galaxy S 9000.

I installed twice (latest version from the App store). I rebooted, put widget to the home screen, turned it on (dots are visible).

But NO led point when after I called myself whilest the screen was locked.

Also waiting a bit after the event wont show a point.

I use the default ring tones that came with the phone. I have a live background.

Beside that I didnt make any fancy changes or anything. A few apps but thats it.

What could be the problem? Thank you for helping.

Best regards

Jan
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
try to send an email to yourself while the screen is off and let me know if you see anything.

the version from the market is reported to work so you should see a dot
[Android Apps and Games] Ziesel:
Hello,

thank you for the quick reply.

When I send an Email I got the point, so this works. After that I did a miss call: it works.

After that I just unlocked the screen and locked it again.

After that I did a call again and saw nothing. No point.

I then touched the middle home button one time and suddenly the point appeared.

For me it looks like there are two "layers or two black screens". Strange.

Now I did one more time send me an Email. The point appears directly, no problem.

In chain of events I did another misseld call and the missed call point appears.

If I clear the points and ONLY do a missed call, no point will appear. Its reproducable ;(

Cause I cannot find anything I would have done wrong. Normally your app is easy to use and not easy to mess around :)

Maybe you have an idea. Thank you!

Best regards

Jan
[Android Apps and Games] HaTeNL:
I've got an idea! Why not use the lights behind the touch buttons (next to the home button).

I know it's not possible to give them a color by software.. but you maybe you can use different combinations like:

both on: new sms

left on: missed call

right on: new mail

blinking: new whatever

Is that possible? I don't like how it's done now.. Unforunatley, the AMOLED screen is not completely off when using NoLed.

Ow damn.. Didn't read the first sentence :P

So there already is a programm for that?
[Android Apps and Games] LevitateJay:
There is already a thread in development for this, called backlight notification
[Android Apps and Games] Berzi:
Hello,

after installing the new version i can not connect to WiFi. After deinstalling the program everything working fine again!?..
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
lock the screen, turn screen off and make sure NoLED is on. then send an SMS to yourself and see if that works? I need to know if the problem is only related to missed calls.
[Android Apps and Games] Tanis64:
Hi i test last market version with call and sms. It seem that the autostart works not correctly for me. After a reboot, both call and sms don't bring up noLed to draw that little squares. After turn it off and on again via the widget it works for call and sms. In a previus version there was a little popup that shows if noLed was turned off or on, in the latest market version this has vanished. Using official JM1 updated via kies.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
I'm putting that little popup notification back in. As for NoLED not working on reboot, I don't have that problem, so unfortunately I can't replicate it.
[Android Apps and Games] iqbalbaskara:
Hello madmack, just reportin here.

currently using v.1.1.4 (from the market) and I still notice that NoLED turn itself off intermittently, most noticeably in the morning (after charging the phone for the night). that's all for now :)
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
1.1.5 should fix that now, check change log.

it's on the market too.
[Android Apps and Games] husq510:
1.1.5 no longer working

Hello madmack,

just installed 1.1.5, service start but it never shows leds. I have enclair 2.1, root, no lag fix. When I start widget popup say "noled is on", but after that I dont see leds.

I tried to uninstall it first and install again but no success. It does not trigger when email or calls or sms.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
did any previous version work for you?
[Android Apps and Games] husq510:
sure. will try to install old ones and let you know how it goes.
[Android Apps and Games] dipxda:
I have the following problem with NoLED on my Samsung Galaxy S. I use SMS Popup to show a popup window when I receive new SMS messages. It seems that this popup window is cancelled by NoLED as soon as the jumping dot is displayed. That means, when I press the home screen button to unlock the screen, the popup window is dissapeared. In contrast, when I disable NoLED, the popup window is shown as long until I cancel it manually.

Is that a bug of NoLED?

Apart from this behavior it's a great program.
[Android Apps and Games] husq510:
I have installed 0.9 and working.

1.0b not working.

1.1.5 not working

If I remember well, I started with 0.3 then I moved with the first version on the market (dont know what version was, 0.9 ? ) by uninstalling manually 0.3 and it worked fine with different colors, once I moved to 1.1.4 and 1.1.5 next it stopped to work.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
so basically NoLED stopped working when a preference screen was added. given that everybody stopped complaining with 1.1.5, I think its a problem specific to your device. could be some setting that you've done or some other app interfering with the new released.

if you want me to help u further, plz send a pm or an email to the address registered in the market and we'll see what we can do :)

Exchange Notification

Hello. I am new to this board. I love noLED. There is no other apps like it, thank you.

However, I am having an issue with Exchange notification (red). It used to work but it stopped working on v1.1.1. I installed back to 1.0b, and it worked again. Then, I upgraded to 1.1.4 and it still worked. However, after upgrading it to 1.1.5, it stopped working. I installed back to 1.0b, 1.1.4, then 1.1.5 but it no longer works on any of these versions. Each install, I did uninstall and restart the unit (Captivate). All other notifications are working fine, including gmail, sms, google voice, missed call, etc.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
hmmm.. is "other" checked in the toggle menu?
[Android Apps and Games] Cyalintz:
Hi,

There is no battery problem with the app which is always working ?

(np with the screen i think thanks to super amoled right ?)

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] nk321:
Yes. 'All other' is checked. I do get RED notification on SMS sent to Google Voice account. Just not for the Exchange...
[Android Apps and Games] EarlZ:
Can anyone update us on the battery usage of this app, earlier there lots of users who had issues with battery life on this app.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
another user reported that the exchange app itself stopped pushing mail. make sure thats not the case here.

Otherwise, you need to make sure you select a default sound for the exchange notification. If Google Voice SMS works and Exchange doesn't, it is very hard for me to debug this problem.
[Android Apps and Games] DrBouvenstein:
I'm having a problem with NoLED. It never works with my emails. I get the notification from missed calls, SMS, and voicemails (which isn't an option but it shows up as the SMS color...weird...) but I have tried every combination of settings I can think of in both my email app and gmail app and NoLED, and I never get the NoLED notification for my email.

I have a stock Epic 4G, and a gmail account that I am trying to get it to work with.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
Does your email address show when you go to NoLED's preference and try to set colors ?

I was planing on switching to the Epic 4G on the assumption that it had an actual notification LED. Am just curious, you don't have an actual notification LED on the device to show you missed events ?
[Android Apps and Games] DrBouvenstein:
Yes, my when I go to set colors there is a color next to [myname]@gmail.com

The Epic 4G has one LED notification light...which is the same light as the power light. It's red when charging, blue when 100% charged, and it will blink red for a notification. I have it turned off, because when I had it on NoLED didn't seem to work at all.
[Android Apps and Games] hmekosh:
Thank you

I am thrilled to have this program. It was one of my huge issues with losing my LED from my blackberry and this makes me very happy. I am hoping at some point you will be able to do different leds for multiple emails instead of having them just fall into the other catagory.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
I can't help you there as I don't have an Epic to debut this on. It's probably caused by a different gmail client than the one we have which is breaking the hidden APIs that I'm using.

You can already set different colors for different gmail accounts.

If you're talking about exchange accounts, then that is not supported yet.

Anyways guys, I'm releasing v1.2 which adds a daily scheduler (to turn noled on/off at specific times each day). Will put this new version here and then on the Market.
[Android Apps and Games] drowne:
Would you like to try using coloured text instead of random dots for notification?
[Android Apps and Games] dipxda:
Same problem exists with the popup notification of Handcent SMS which is closed by NoLED. Is there a way to avoid this?
[Android Apps and Games] rbtady:
Thanks for all the updates Mack...I just wanted to let you know, I got 1.1.3 working for me. I am going to upgrade to 1.2 now and I'll let you know how it goes.
[Android Apps and Games] nk321:
Thank you for your quick support. I have noticed my Exchange notification does not work only in vibrate mode. With sound notification, it works.

"Only in Silent/Vibrate mode" is unchecked. Checking it does not make it work as well as long as the phone (Captivate) is in Vibrate mode.
[Android Apps and Games] javacody:
madmack, loving noLed. Have it on my Vibrant and haven't noticed any issues with any versions.

I have a feature request. How about a charging indicator? I miss that about my G1.
